The Monster and Other Stories

Three Stories about Human Actions and Reactions“The child would possibly be scarred badly, but his life was undoubtedly safe. As for the negro Henry Johnson, he could not live. His body was frightfully seared, but more than that, he now had no face. His face had simply been burned away.” - Stephen Crane, The Monster
